Enactus is the world’s largest experiential learning platform, with a mission of engaging the next generation of entrepreneurial leaders to use innovation and business principles to improve the world. The UMKC Chapter has contributed nearly 10,000 hours of volunteerism and impacted 7,000 individuals.
After a 2023 visit to Operation Breakthrough, members of UMKC Enactus developed the “Stay Driven” program to provide car repairs for low-income families, enabling them to maintain reliable transportation. 16 Enactus volunteers participated in the event, helping 29 families, saving them $3,000 in repair costs. Participating families received minor repairs like oil changes, headlight replacement, battery replacement, securing bumpers with zip ties and fluids top offs.
